Data rights for voters! @SenFeinstein introduces the #VoterPrivacyAct to prevent the voter surveillance and data abuse illustrated in #TheGreatHack
#VoterPrivacyAct would grant 5 basic rights that do not yet exist in the USA:
1. Right to Know
2. Right to Own
3. Right to Review
4. Right to Remove
5. Right to Refuse

Key lesson learned in Cambridge Analytica scandal is that people need to perform Subject Access Requests and file complaints with the appropriate Data Protection Authority. EU residents concerned about their Instagram data should make request per policy: hyp3r.com/privacy-policy/
If you’re looking for a good guide on how to do a data request under the GDPR, here’s a great toolkit. And ask @PersonalDataIO for help.
There’s probably a narrow profile of an EU resident who should pursue this. Clearly a heavy Instagram stories user, who is also an active Marriott customer, for example. At this point, you have to strongly suspect you could be a victim based on following the news.

My quick searches on fec.gov show that the owner of the poultry processor (Peco Foods LLC, Hickman family) that was raided by ICE in Alabama is a big donor to the the GOP. Huh. Go figure. washingtonpost.com/immigration/ic…
*sorry technically the raids were in Mississippi but the company is Alabama based
How do GOP-aligned businesses in the deep white south square-up with Trump’s immigration crackdown on their businesses who employ undocumented immigrants?

Ironically, just days before the #CambridgeAnalytica scandal broke last spring, SCL Group had presented research to State Dept’s Global Engagement Center about Counterpointing Digital Propaganda with their TAA methods, once export controlled by UK government. #TheGreatHack
And weirdly enough this contract to SCL Group for CVE (Countering Violent Extremism) with TAA (Target Audience Analysis) seems to have been secured no-bid/sole-source while Mike Flynn had previously undisclosed consulting gig with SCL Group. #TheGreatHack
SCL Insights Ltd is the last-standing SCL company, led by Nigel Oakes, who acquired assets from SCL Group before it went into administration. Sensitive security-clearanced clients and personnel were probably swept into this company. fastcompany.com/90381366/the-m…

NEW: Explosive new emails detail work Cambridge Analytica did for LeaveEU/UKIP. Brittany Kaiser, woman at centre of Netflix's #TheGreatHack has handed over a whole bunch of new emails to DCMS committee. Oh dear, Arron Banks. Looks like it's all coming home to roost...
🔥 🔥 🔥
There is a lot in here. This for eg is very interesting. It's a discussion of legality of what they're planning to do with data with Matthew Richardson. He's a key player who connects Nigel Farage to the US far right. Ex-general secretary of UKIP & close to Robert Mercer
Arron Banks & Alexander Nix both told parliament that Cambridge Analytica did no work for LeaveEU. But this confirm @observerUK story from last year. We revealed CA invoiced UKIP £41,500 for work. & Arron Banks paid UKIP. UKIP just never handed £ over

Yesterday @SRuhle had on L2 Inc founder @profgalloway in segment re:Netflix docu #TheGreatHack after chat w/director @JehaneNoujaim & prod @Karim_Amer33

~11:00, Ruhle asks Galloway about L2 link to Cambridge Analytica

[THREAD] to correct record..

msnbc.com/velshi-ruhle/w…
.@SRuhle asks @profgalloway for comment on fact that Cambridge Analytica has listed L2 “..as a company they’ve worked with..or involved in their data sources..”

His response was complete denial.

Nothing shady about this answer -- Ruhle was talking to the wrong L2..
@SRuhle @profgalloway This is the L2 @profgalloway founded & sold to Gartner in 2017:

A digital intelligence tool.

I'm watching #TheGreatHack on Netflix.

15 minutes in so far and my initial reaction is "oh come on, can we just not with the Cambridge Analytica villain-hagiography?" (1/probably a lot)
Minute 12: the film credits Cambridge Analytica for Ted Cruz's victory in the Iowa caucuses, showing a clip of CA's CEO bragging about the win. IIRC, the Cruz campaign fired CA soon after, because they found the data and modeling to be basically garbage.
Minute 15: Another clip of Alexander Nix, giving a staged sales pitch about how powerful his product is.

...Folks, just because the sales guy tells you his beans are magic doesn't mean you have to believe him.

UCC had opportunity to comment on the #Data.Protection & Privacy Bill. The enactment of this law is long overdue. A comprehensive law on the collection & processing personal information gives effect to the right to Privacy envisaged under Article 27(2) of the Constitution
UCC welcome the protections offered by the Bill in terms of export of data, breach notification requirements, data subjects access rights, automated decision making, compensation and the right to be forgotten and provision for financial and penal sanctions for breach of the law.
Distinction between Data collectors & data controllers.
The Bill should however clarify & distinguish Data Collectors, from Data Processors & Data Controllers. Clause 2 is inconsistent with international good practice which provides for two broad categories of Data Controllers

The EC website publishes a list of registered voters and their personal details including gender and voter ID, both of which are considered sensitive personal information. How do we balance: Personal #privacy and Public accountability bit.ly/2ALpQTY @alokpi @pandayjyoti
The ambiguity extends to other public databases such as land records, list of MGNREGA beneficiaries, First Information Reports, and court records, which are currently not in conformance with the draft #privacy bill by Justice Srikrishna Committee
Political data analyst @ShivamShankarS on how electoral roll can be used for micro targeting: “From the electoral roll, demographic #data of the constituencies can be deduced and used for targeted campaigns in elections via social media.”
